Ape Ally Donations Make a Difference

Your donation will go where it is needed most. Here are examples of ways your donation impacts our rescued orangutans and chimpanzees.

Daily enrichment is an important part of the daily lives of our residents at the sanctuary. A gift of just $10 per month will help provide enrichment treats each day.

For $25 a month (less than $1 per day) you can help provide one of our apes with a yearly supply of specially formulated nutritional “primate biscuits,” that are an essential part of their diet at the sanctuary.

Our orangutans and chimpanzees are fortunate to have one of the top rated veterinarians in the country. Our vet conducts routine examinations to ensure our apes are in optimal health. Your $50 monthly gift will help cover half of the cost of those exams for one ape each year.

A balanced diet of fruits and vegetables is essential to nourish and ensure a healthy lifestyle. For $100 a month you will provide one ape many of the fresh fruits and vegetables they need for a full year.
